methyl 3-formyl-2-nitrobenzoate

Description:
Methyl 3-formyl-2-nitrobenzoate, with the CAS number 138229-59-1, is an organic compound characterized by its functional groups, including a formyl group (-CHO) and a nitro group (-NO2) attached to a benzoate structure. This compound typically appears as a yellow to orange crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but may have limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic nature. The presence of the nitro group contributes to its electron-withdrawing properties, which can influence its reactivity and stability. Methyl 3-formyl-2-nitrobenzoate can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic additions and condensation reactions, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis. Its unique structure may also impart specific biological activities, although detailed studies on its biological properties may be limited. As with many nitro compounds, it is essential to handle this substance with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.
